Hello
First of all I'm sorry if this was already asked, and considering how big this forum, probably is. I recently purchased this phone, Huawei Ascend Mate 2. Now phone was from China Telekom and it was full of their blootware, first I did was try to Root phone to get rid of that, I rooted phone using guide I found here and using KingRoot desktop.
Now I have problems with Google contacts can't sync them, there is no option, even tried installing Google Calendar and people sync app from gapps but I'd didn't work.
Now what I really want to know is, could I maybe install some other rom on this phone, can someone point me to some detailed guide for doing so? What rom would it be best to put here? Please any help is appreciated.
I tried uploading pic of build number and other info but it won't let me.

Can you tell us more about the C00? Does it have Jelly Bean, KitKat, or Lollipop? I'm not sure if we can help you. Most of us have the MT2-L03, which is very different inside.
Found this online ScoobSTi don't know how good the info is but it should be a good starting point for finding out more about it

There is also a post on xda about TWRP for the phone that may also be helpful as well

Hope this helps out.

Flashing original software is your best bet. There is no development for that device.
Yeah, for MT2_C00, there not much ROM development in xda, you better stick with stock ROM.
And they also are doing 5.1 ROM testing recently, but I am not sure what's the progress of that.
http://cn.club.vmall.com/forum-314-1.html
Above forum is mate 2 forum, which you can use google translate to get some info (make sure you are looking at your phone MT2_C00)
Regarding the google service issue, since google website is blocked in China, so all phone sold in china doesn't have google stuff. They have their own "play store". I think they have all the lower level google framework/services removed, that's probably why install some google apk won't work.
in XDA, I have seen some thread discussion about extract/compile a complete google framework/app stack for phones like yours, but you need research and try them out.
For example:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1874285
or more general
https://www.google.com/search?q=com...amework+chinese+site:forum.xda-developers.com
Good luck.
Thanks everyone for help.

Sorry I thought I posted screenshot from phone, but I guess it didnt let me, anyway:
Version 4.4.2
EMUI 3.0

Kernel 3.0.8-00454-g07bb652
Baseband SNAVARZ5334
@Moody66
Sorry for noob question, but what do you mean, leave it like this or to flash stock international rom if that is possible?
What should I do first now, I need recovery right?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ascend-mate2/development/recovery-t2979471
Is this my starting point?
If anyone want to help feel free to add me on Line app, whats app or what ever.
Yeah, I think you should flash that recovery first. So you can have backup before try anything else. That thread remind me @4L0M, not sure he saw this thread, he might can share some info on the Google issue.
---------- Post added at 09:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 AM ----------
Hey, another thing, can you view the /system/etc/hosts and see if any Google host is there? I think one approach they use is return dummy IP using this file to speed up fail response for blocked site.
If you see any, you can try deleted those Google lines and see. You need root and better have twrp and take System backup before modify the file.
I solved problems with contacts, installed today another google contact sync and it worked. Now, can someone help me how to install international stock rom it would be great, if it is possible, or any advice what should I do. It is annoying to see those chinese letters, not everything is translated even though language is english and chinese.

I don't think there are any other ROMs for the C00. Where are you located? How did you get a C00?

Like they said. There are no flash able ROMs for this device. All you can do is wait and hope they release an updated firmware for it. It may be possible to flash Gapps package to it and see of that works. But without a backup you could do more harm than good.

i have the official 2.1 rom on my phone that i have deleted from it a lot of an unusable apps. and some time when i an in a progrem for some time it writes to me the FC of:com.htc.bgp and than it dont do nothing. i just dont like it. can somebody tell me what i did wrong, or, how to fix it?
thanks in advence
wow, thanks for all the replys, unfortunately non of them works.
thanks anyway.lol
Very few people here use official software. Chances are the programs you have installed are causing something in sense to crash. Try and replicate the problem consistently and you might be able to solve it. Failing that just re-install your software from scratch (i.e. downgrade to an old version of Android using a HTC RRU exe file from their website for your network. Then let that find the update to 2.1 and install that on a fresh system. Then start installing your own apps and customising settings.

Dalet made HebVillain. Worth a look?
Also, stock isn't really the point in this forum for most people. Custom ROMs are the main ones used here, so few people know about the stock ones, as they're often slower, buggier and worse.

Second that, see my signature for link to HebVillain, highly recommend both with English UI (my choice) or Hebrew UI
thanks. but i really like the stock roms.
i found it very smooth and long battery.
thamks for the advices thought
Ok here it is,
Im reading and reading about the rooting.
I tryed to synch my tab with kies to root my tab following this THREAD but it doesnt work
So I posted about it and someone suggested me to check the LOOK HERE THREAD instead
I have a p7500 16gb 4G(well in fact 3G++) and wi-fi (p7500ruxkh4)
Im in canada (quebec province) and am with rogers
data plan, locked sim
honeycomb 3.1
kernel is 2.6.36.3
Now i want to use some apps like titanium backup and some others that need a rooted tab and thats it. I dont want to change kernel or rom or whatever else.
In the LOOK HERE THREAD, there is 2 different P7500 rooting method, one for the 3G and one for the 4G.
On my box and in my "task bar" its says 4G but for what i know, its more 3G++ than real 4G, So WICH one of the tuto do i follow ?
Also, at http://www.samfirmware.com/ i cant find the stock firmware for my p7500ruxkh4
That mean that if i do wrong, i wont be able to recover as brand new. Any clues of where to find it ?
Now about CMW and Odin, since i just want to root, do i have to dl thoses programs ?
Also in the UNROOT tutorial, you guys talk about the filesfordummies, but for what i read, this file is for the p7510 and not for my p7500 right?
So if i want to UNROOT my P7500, what are the proper steps to follow ?
I know, theses are probably noob questions but after searching on the net and this forum, I couldnt find any clear anwsers so i think i should ask you guys first instead of trying and brick my tab.
There is 5 bold/underline questions. I hope some of you have all the anwsers.
Thanks in advance for your help
1. IMPORTANT: in the look here thread use the root package for the 3G model
the 4G/LTE version will cause your system to bootloop
2. DO A NANDROID backup of your stock install -- then you have that to go back to.
3. Team Overcome have a great guide and package: stock for restore and clean purposes, CWM for root usage and a very nice custom rom: see here
4. if you want a custom kernel, there is one by Pershoot and the modification by rego here which plays nice with Overcome and matches your 7500 very well.

I was wondering if you backed up your Stock Firmware? I am using some Europe firmware as of now because I was one of the unlucky who used the 4G unlock.

well, i rooted my tab and used rom manager to backup my actual rom. i dont know if it can help u.
another thing, i changed the hosts file in /system/etc/hosts to avoid ads in games or app.
since im not rally used to all this stuff, tell me if there is something i can do for you, and if so, ill help with pleasure
If you backed it up just after you rooted it should be okay, I should be able to load your Backup to get my rom back to normal and then Factory Reset to get it all cleaned off. Let me know if there is a way you can email or dropbox it to me in a pm.
It would be awesome!
check ur pm, if it work, just click thanks
Thanks alot. I'll click thanks and personally write a thank you note.
Just so you know you're likely to be asked to help other Canadians as well. As the firmware is apparently hard to come buy.

Anyone know of any ROMs that will work on this phone? I just picked one up for my mother and while it's probably more than enough for her needs, I would like to try and get something closer to stock and be able to remove the bloatware on the device.
I know this isn't a popular phone and it's newer, but does no one know?
Anyone?
No need for a different rom.

My phone is a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900T. A while back I decided to root it. After rooting it, I realized you cannot use Snapchat and I wanted to unroot it. Now, that I am trying to unroot it and return it back to stock; it won't. Yes it is unrooted and I know this because I installed Snapchat and used it last night. That is not the problem. The root is GONE. No matter what I do I cannot get it to flash a different firmware. I used a superuser, that was posted in here. It was like superuser something zip. It was not the old way, like when you flashed it through Odin. This one you actually unzipped it through the Team Win recovery. And the ROM that I used, Is the one that is on here now that I cannot get it off. It is a Marshmallow 6.0.1. I found posted in here too. If this helps, the emojis are not the flat minimalist looking ones, like Twitter uses. They are very round raised embossed kind of shiny and cartoon-ish looking. I have went to a post in here with all the firmwares listed, I went to samsung update and to sammobile. I have gotten different builds for my model of phone. And nothing this will not get off. I have tried to restore it back to stock and no it will not? Why can't I get this rom off my phone? :crying:Can anyone help me. I feel like I am crazy. But I can assure you this is the truth!
Please help and thanks!

It is a SM-G900T, it is unlocked if that made a difference? I was able to get this G900TUVU1FOG6_G900TTMB1FOG6 to flash to it. And then it upgraded a few times over night. It seems to be fine. But it still does not have the new emojis, is that a Samsung thing? Doesn't the emojis in the Marshmallow update look similar to the Twitter emojis?

Like I stated in my post. I wanted to be able to use my Snapchat again. You cannot use Snapchat with any rooted devices. So, I wanted to return my phone to stock. What I probably should do is get rid of this outdated phone and get me new one ASAP.
